Ruffa Gutierrez proud of Lorin's graduation, open to daughter joining pageantry

January 30 ------ Actress Ruffa Gutierrez could not hide her excitement as she revealed that her eldest daughter, Lorin, is set to graduate this May from Pepperdine University's advertising and integrated marketing program in California.

"Si Lorin po ay graduating na sa May 1 and 2. Mayroon siyang commencement exercises sa LA (Los Angeles) kaya pupunta ako doon," Ruffa revealed in an impromptu interview during the 4th year Thanksgiving party of the Luxe Beauty and Wellness Group at The Blue Leaf Cavite. "Happy na happy ako kasi talagang graduating na siya at meron na akong isang magtatapos," she said of her eldest daughter Lorin. "So, bilang ina, talagang tuwang-tuwa ko at isa na lang ang papag-aralin ko. Si Venice na lang," she added. Ruffa failed to state whether her ex-husband, Yilmaz Bektas, will attend Lorin's graduation. "Surprise na lang," she said.

When asked if Lorin is open to joining pageantry now that she's 22, Ruffa did not close the door on the idea. "Tingnan natin kasi pagkatapos nya ma graduate pupunta sya dito sa Pilipinas." The celebrity mom of two declared that she has always given her daughters free rein to make their own decisions. She cited their college coursesas an example. "Sila ang may gusto nyan, sila talaga ang dapat pumili."
